Indian army rubbishes reports of ‘surgical strikes’ in AJK

The Indian army on Thursday denied media reports of “surgical strikes” carried out inside Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK), ARY News reported.

According to reports, Indian Army Director General of Military Operations Lieutenant General Paramjit Singh in a statement has denied Indian media reports of army action in Azad Kashmir.

Reports circulating on Indian media about the Indian Army’s action in Azad Kashmir across the Line of Control are fake, he clarified.

Last week, Pakistan had presented “irrefutable evidence” of India’s sponsorship of terrorism in the country and called on the international community to take notice.

While addressing the press conference, DG ISPR said that the country has collected concrete evidence regarding the aggression of India as it is financing terrorist outfits and supplying arms to upscale terrorism in Pakistan.

Babar Iftikhar said that ‘mastermind’ Colonel Rajesh held four meetings with the representatives of terrorist outfits at Afghan embassy for planning terrorist attacks in Pakistan. Indian embassy and its consulate have been turned into hideouts of terrorists along the border, he added.
